One of AAUW's goals is to provide programs that stimulate and educate its members and the larger community. Since 1881, the AAUW has been working for equity for women, sound education and better communities.

Today it awards more than $1 million each year in fellowships, research and project grants for public service and to help individuals advance in their chosen fields. For more information on the program, call Janet Hutson at 797-6721.
